Bob hit an NBA-range 3-pointer at the buzzer to put us up by 10. That was a very big shot for us. |
I am incredibly proud of this team. This is one of the most gratifying years I've had. Not one of the most successful, but one of the most gratifying. |
I can't believe I'm not talking to you about an 80-30 loss. |
I told the kids at halftime that if we didn't defend the paint it was over. We had to give them the three ... I figure if they make them after not making them for 14 games, god bless 'em they deserve to beat us. |
I'd say the winner of Thursday night's going to go (to the playoffs), and the loser's not. I'd say the season boils down to Thursday night. |
I'm very pleased with where we're at with a month to go. We continue to improve our times and compete against tough teams. |
It's been our Achilles' heel all year. We desperately need to get that going by the time February rolls around. |
Last year, it took us six meets to get that relay team under four minutes. |
Lindsay's dives were shaky at points, but he hit enough of them to beat the Golden kids. That's what we told him to do tonight - don't worry about points, just beat the rest of the field. |
Nothing's definite until 5:01 on Sunday night. But it will be a news flash if it doesn't happen. We came in to tonight with a power ranking of 44. Forty-eight teams go and we just beat a 41. |
That clearly took us out of our game plan. We watched the Steamboat(-Battle Mountain) game (Saturday). We saw that those two had seven-eighths (sic) of their points and we decided that someone else was going to have to beat us, and to their credit, they did. |
The first meet is when we establish our baselines that we go from for the rest of the season. They are far ahead of where they were last year at this time. |
There's no one gonna beat them. |
They're the tallest team in the state of Colorado in 4A. |
Tonight we showed that we're developing and that we're coming together. We showed we're worthy of getting to the big dance. |
